Plugin and Beans with Java 6 update 19
Posted: Fri Apr 09, 2010 11:43 am
As you might have noticed Oracle/Sun change the security level requirement in a minor update.
This change requires to:
1) Have all beans/plugins signed with a certificate (a self signed certificate will suffice, but does result in warning for enduser, which is better to avoid)
2) Change the dedicated plugin jnlp file if used, it needs to contain:
<security>
<all-permissions/>
</security>
In the future we might be able to drop these requirements with use of classloaders and the new jar manifest options provided in Java 6 update 19, we are researching this currently.
